The storage environment of stainless steel heat exchange tubes should strictly follow industrial standards to ensure performance and structural integrity. Below are its requirements for storage environment:
1. Absolute dryness
The relative humidity should be controlled below 60%, and the warehouse needs to be equipped with dehumidifiers or air conditioning systems to prevent condensation water erosion.
Lay a moisture-proof layer on the ground (such as plastic film+wooden tray) to ensure that the heat exchange tubes are at least 15cm above the ground.
2. Ventilation and pollution prevention
Continuous air circulation to avoid the accumulation of corrosive gases (such as hydrogen sulfide and chlorine gas) in enclosed spaces;
Stay away from acid/alkali/salt chemical storage areas, with a minimum distance of 5 meters.
3. Temperature control and light avoidance
Maintain a temperature of 5-40 ℃ to avoid frost cracking or high-temperature oxidation;
Areas exposed to direct sunlight require shading treatment, especially pipes with protective film (UV accelerated film aging).
The storage of stainless steel heat exchange tubes should be kept away from the seaside and high humidity environments. If stored for a long time, food grade rust proof oil should be applied to the sealing surface, and regular inspections and repainting should be carried out.
